Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in NetIQ Access Manager (NAM) 4.x before 4.0.1 HF3 allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via (1) the location parameter in a dev.Empty action to nps/servlet/webacc, (2) the error parameter to nidp/jsp/x509err.jsp, (3) the lang parameter to sslvpn/applet_agent.jsp, or (4) the secureLoggingServersA parameter to roma/system/cntl, a different issue than CVE-2014-9412.

Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2014-5216 is a set of cross-site scripting flaws in NetIQ Access Manager 4.x before 4.0.1 HF3. An attacker could inject script or HTML into NAM web interfaces, potentially affecting users or administrators who view crafted content through exposed NAM pages. Organizations running NetIQ Access Manager 4.x below 4.0.1 HF3 are potentially exposed, especially where NAM portals, SSL VPN, or administrative interfaces are reachable by users or the internet. Treat this as a timely patching issue for any legacy NAM deployment. It is not KEV-listed, but XSS in an access-management platform can create business risk if administrators or privileged users are targeted. Mitigation focus: Upgrade NetIQ Access Manager to 4.0.1 HF3 or later where applicable.; Review Novell or NetIQ vendor KB guidance for supported fixes.; Limit external exposure of NAM administrative and management interfaces..
